Default El cheapo brake discs for track?

Looking for some rotors to do a quick track day on. I found these $10 rotors. Should I trust these? I was thinking I can order 4 rotors for the front and 4 for the rear just in case. Should I cough up an extra $10 for some centric rotors? I will be using Carbotec XP8's on them.

Other option is to get my stock rotors resurfaced

Make sure the rotors don't crack under that high heat

Id be skeptical . I read lots of threads here that under heavy track usage even some of the top notch rotors will crack.

I used those back in June and cracked them within 2 sessions. It was bad too, from edge to hub split.

Pay the extra for the centrics.
